      Here are my experimental files for the 9000 CD spindle. You will have to play with them a little depending upon your printer. The original file sent to me did not render properly on my resin printer but it might work fine on a filament printer. Anyway, use these as you see fit. I’m not responsible if you print one of these, jam it in your deck, and it doesn’t fit. I will say I had a hell of a time scaling the original file to the exact right dimensions using the crappy software that came with my printer but it can be done.

      EDIT: I had a friend print several discs for me with various settings on his Crealty Ender 3 filament printer and one came out almost perfect. Using the base file included in this zip, we scaled it up 6% which made the central D cylinder fit perfectly on the motor spindle. It was necessary to *carefully* sand a little of the outer diameter off using a 1000 grit emery board to get CDs to fit right. Don’t go finer than 1000 or you risk the disc not gripping the CD and just spinning inside of it. Good luck!

        Thank you, Guy! I found the person who designed a replacement via 3d printing and he is going to send me the STL file so I can print one myself. And thank you for the information distinguishing my 9000 from the 9300/9500.
